The high today was 112 degrees. Only 8% humidity, so still a lot more comfortable than a 90-95 degree day with 80-100% humidity. I define comfortable as sitting in the shade and not sweating--lol!

Use my garage for various projects during the day. When I do, I move the truck in the driveway and cover it. My driveway has a slight slope so don't have to start the truck to move it. Keep it covered 'cause the sun in the desert is notorious for destroying dashes, weatherstripping, and fading paint.

Anywhoser, when I finished my projects for the day (approx. 5pm and still 110 deg) I turned on the ignition as I got ready to pull my truck back into the garage. Noticed the tranny and temp gauges were about 1/4" above "C", BEFORE I ever started the engine. Wow!

This is one of the things I loved about my Titan, It had a trans temp gauge. No such luck on my Tundra.
